Happy Veterans Day

Friends,

Today, I would like to take a moment to thank all of our veterans, active military, and their families as we get set to celebrate Veterans Day this weekend.

We all recognize the sacrifice that brave men and women make in service to our nation, protecting our freedoms and liberties at home and around the world, but only veterans and their families know the cost first-hand. We are the beneficiaries of the greatest force for good the world has ever known and we have our veterans to thank for that.

So if you are a veteran, thank you for your service. We are the land of the free because of your bravery and sacrifice.

Many local businesses and services are offering discounts this weekend for current members of the military and veterans. A partial list of a few of those businesses offering discounts can be seen here.

I encourage any high school junior who may be interested in learning more about the legislative process to apply for the page program by December 1st. Click here to apply!
